Abstract
The root-mean-squared bandwidth of spectral broadening induced by cross-phase modulation is derived analytically for a two-channel system consisting of a pump and probe channel. The pump channel is randomly modulated by binary data and the probe channel is a weak continuous-wave channel. The analytical expression is verified by experiments.
